Skysports-News: The four-year, £25.4 million contract between Leicester City and the star central forward from Leeds United was officially announced this afternoon, according to CBS. Leicester City is expected to compete with a European club for the former Manchester United player after his departure due to….

Erik ten Hag was a fan of the former Manchester United striker that Leicester City is trying to recruit.

Following their promotion to the Premier League, Leicester City has undergone several on-field and off-field adjustments.
In the King Power Stadium dugout, Steve Cooper has taken Enzo Maresca’s position. Meanwhile, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and other first-team players have departed the team.

The most significant departure was the midfielder’s move to Chelsea; Cooper is keen for Leicester to sign Dewsbury-Hall this summer.

In 2023–2024, Dewsbury–Hall assisted on 15 goals and scored 12, so his departure created a significant gap in the Midlands team’s offensive output.

Additionally, Kelechi Iheanacho left on a free transfer and recently joined Sevilla.

Leicester currently only has two senior strikers on their roster, Jamie Vardy, who is 37 years old.
Therefore, it should come as no surprise to learn that Leicester wants to bolster their center-forward lineup for the balance of this transfer window.
Leicester is vying with Ajax for Jordan Ayew, a former Manchester United striker who may be available for a low price given his contract predicament.

Additionally, Cooper has an open shot at Elye Wahi now that West Ham has shifted their focus away from the striker for RC Lens.
A new player has now been connected to a transfer to the 2023–24 Championship winners.
